The problem with video file acceleration is widespread across all Linux distributions.

The process consuming the most CPU before reaching 9% was identified from the Windows screenshot.

I believe the problem likely stems from Chromium and Firefox not investing enough effort to make it work. Both browsers let you turn it on in an experimental mode, though. I’m unsure how OP uses Zoom or exactly how it functions. If it only works in Chrome, you might be lucky since Google hasn’t planned it for experimental use. You can activate it in Steam, but using Linux caused my Steam to crash after a few minutes of heavy RAM usage. This seems like one of those cases where people claim they can do it, but real adoption is low because Linux isn’t widely used.

Thanks, it wasn't a browser zoom. It was the installation zoom from the "app store" of Mint. I believe it's a Flatpak? Appreciate the response!

Have you been utilizing Intel Integrated Graphics? They've experienced several driver problems lately. Consider switching to a newer kernel version.

Integrated Intel GPU included. No need to upgrade kernel—will check how to proceed.

Here I found it without heavy file compression. The system is running version 5.7.6. My Intel CPU is fairly old and likely doesn’t have the same issues as newer models. I’m not sure if hardware acceleration is the problem, more so the i9i5 driver in the kernel. My Ryzen Arch System didn’t show any performance gains in the Process Table. My laptop uses an i5-2520M processor.
